It smells AMAZING

I usually have a hard time picking out fabric softeners that don't have the smell disappear the day you decide to pull it out, I want it to have a fresh smell all day long. This product is amazing, I can spray perfume on and don't have to worry about the fabric softener sent combining with it, it has a very soft feel as well. It's hands down my favorite!

Too artificial for me

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The product was very easy to use. Very strong scent when I took the clothes out of the washer, scent wasn't as strong out of the dryer. The scent on the clothes while you were wearing them, almost made me feel like there was soap residue leftover... I didn't care for it.

Everything

This fresh protect is so cool. Really love the smell of my towels now and that there is no residue after the washing process. The dryer really brings out the softness and fresh scent. I was so excited to try the Downy Fresh Protect Beads when I received them. I got the product for free, but please note all opinions are my own.

No odor to great! Awesome product!

Downy Fresh Protect April Fresh in was odor shield beads have been a blessing for my family of four. I have two children, a toddler and a 7 year old. My fiancé is always tinkering in the garage. Despite the normal odors, we have livestock animals. So I was totally surprised that these downy beads handled and got rid of odors even in our muck clothes! If you have ever been on a farm, you know that it is a stinky job! Tossing the downy beads in the wash has handled odors like muck, musty stench from working in the rain. All the way to a bathroom mishap while potty training my toddler! I feel spoiled that my work clothes for the farm smell so good when I put them on. I love opening my closet to be greeted with the April fresh scent! These work great for gym clothes and stinky socks too! Who knew all my clothes needed were a little deoderant! Very good price point too! I received a free sample of these in order to provide my honest and unbiased review! All views expressed our my genuine experience with Downy beads, I received no monetary compensation for my reviews. I am disclosing this information to comply with FTC guidelines.

Great fresh smell of Downy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was able to try out Downy Fresh & Protect beads for free thanks to BzzAgent and Downy. I chose to wash some pajamas using the Beads. I first did a load of wash using just detergents and then did the pajamas using the beads. I could definitely tell the difference and my load where I use the beads. There was definitely a fresher scent from the load that I used to beads in. I will be using this product again as well as sharing with my friends what a great product it is.

Smells are dog-gone!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I regularly wash our dog's bedding and toys, but they never really come out smelling good. I washed all of the dog's laundry using the Downy Fresh & Protect Beads and they came out of the dryer actually smelling really nice! They didn't smell like dog anymore! So happy!

Would probably love it more if I had teenagers

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Downey inwash odor shield is used to give your laundry and added boost of scent and softness. our laundry isn't that smelly so this isn't that necessary for our family. But if I was a mom with teenagers (especially teenage boys!) this would be great. So if your clothes come out of the wash STILL smelling as if they came out of the locker room, this is perfect.

Scents that last all day!

As someone who is obsessed with things that smell fantastic, I'm definitely obsessed with the Downy Fresh Protect Beads. My clothes and linens smell just as good coming out of the wash as the beads smelled going into to it! I love crawling into bed for days after washing my sheets, and to still smell April Freshness. I will definitely continue to use and buy this product, I just wish that there were more variety of scents to chose from.

Better than expected.

I don't normally use products like these but was glad I gave it a shot. The great smell lasts all day, I literally forgot I was wearing my normally smelly work clothes. Although I think you can get this effect from other brands or items, this one seems to last the longest. And I have to say, I did that thing you usually see in the commercials where they pull the clothes of the dryer and smell it and are so happy... that's a real reaction! I received this product for free through Influenster in exchange for my honest opinion.
